Re: RMAN performance when using UNC paths

Thanks for your answer, Jared. Some complementary information:

The backups are taken through this automatic channel: CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '\\remote_host\e$\Oracle\Backup\%d\%d_%u_%p_%c';

I'm not at this customer's site and I can not ask the network team to check that out. I was wondering if someone on the list had encoutered such problems. There are several messages on the net from DBA having seen such performance mysteries, but no explanation was given.

If the problem can not be corrected, can you give me ideas for other solutions? The goal is to take backups on the disks of a remote server. The server hosting the database does not have the disk capacity to temporarily hold the backup pieces (which we could have transfered through the UNC path and its good performance with OS commands).

Jerome
